Out with the Old...In with the New!

Yesterday we cleared out the tomato plants. It was hard to do. I brought them up from wee-little transplants barely 10 inches tall. They were just too out of control. I didn't prune them and they overtook the entire garden! As you can see here...

Before
The cucumbers were starting to wander through the tomatoes and the damn squirrel was having a heyday eating all my ripe fruit. So my husband braved the garden and clear cut the tomato plants.

After
I have all this empty space now! I might try a couple more watermelon plants. Or maybe I should wait until we stop hitting 100 degrees and try some cool weather crops....hmmmm.
